Connecting device for a breathing apparatus

摘要

Means are provided for connecting at least one breathing gas cylinder to a face mask or like device in breathing equipment of the kind used by firemen and divers, for instance. The means includes a three-way coupling (5) in which at least one of the connections is comprised of a hose connector (10) which can be adjusted angularly in relation to the two remaining connections (9, 13). The coupling means can be used for different purposes and is relatively insensitive to external influences.
